    Preferred solo leveling spec?

    Looking to level with mostly questing and minimal dungeons. Is a blood spec with dps heirlooms ideal? Or should I be going frost?

    blood spec and 1 hit everything with death siphon and lol
    use blood boil with multiple mobs
    don't even bother with diseases

    works until 80 I believe

    Diseases are useful for soloing instances and the occasional group quest (owing to the -10% damage debuff).


    Use Blood Boil for single-target DPS, not Heart Strike.

    yeah blood is the best option, it's actually harder to die as blood while leveling than it is to kill anything in your way.

    I don't think people are reading what you typed. If you have heirlooms and you just want to quest, frost or unholy is fine for leveling. Blood is mainly used for soloing old raids. It's good for tougher mobs, but quest mobs are generally a joke. Go dps and blast through them.

    blood has huge damage until 80sh
    death siphon 1 hits mobs
    blood boil does insane aoe damage

    Rather, scaling is broken. As is for stuff like: Shield Slam, Keg Smash, Avenger's Shield, Penance, Chi Cocoon(MW Monk bubble thingy), Pw: Shield and a few others I forgot off the top of my head. Guardian Druids are the only tanks that don't have a broken ability while leveling.

    I would stay with blood 90-100 (until it is not possible anymore to gather entire zone and AoE it down after the squish).

    Not sure what the squish has to do with that.

    I'd use frost tho, then you always have 2 death runs up and don't have to death strike to get them (and the runes might disepear between pulls)

    death siphon scaling isn't completely broken for frost afaik
    BB will be doing way more damage than HB too for aoe

    Death Siphon is broken across all three specs (even more so for Unholy).
